- the starting material is to contain the 4-benzyloxycyclohexyl moiety.
- the benzyloxy group is reduced to the alcohol, which is then converted to the corresponding chloride, i.e., thionyl chloride, and subsequently reacted with basic reagents such as alkali hydroxides and alkoxides or a variety of amines to form the (cyclohex-3-enyl) group.
- a 2-cyclohexylthiophene or a lower alkyl substituted 2-cyclohexylthiophene compound is brominated so as to add bromine to any unsubstituted positions on the thiophene moiety.
- This compound is then reduced with aluminum amalgam to yield a 2-cyclohexyl-4-bromothiophene compound.
- Conversion of this compound to the Grignard reagent followed by reaction with CO and hydrolysis yields the 5-cyclohexyl-3-thiophenecarboxylic acid compound. This carboxyl group may then be converted to the acetic acid side chain as previously indicated.

assignors to Merck & (30., Inc., Rahway, N.J., a corporation of New Jersey No Drawing. Filed Dec. 30, 1964, Ser. No. 422,407 Int. Cl. C07d /16, 63/12; A61k 27/00 US.

The acid side chain and the cyclohexyl group of Formulae I, II and III are in positions on the hetero moiety other than adjacent to each other. In addition, when the hetero moiety is furan, the acid side chain and cyclohexyl group are not in a 2-4 position to each other.
In the more preferred aspects of this invention, X is COOH, R is hydrogen, the is a saturated position, R is hydrogen or halogen, R is methylene and R" is methyl or ethyl but especially methyl. In addition, in the more preferred aspect of this invention, the acid side chain is on the 2 position of the heterocyclic moiety (furan or thiophene), and the cyclohexyl group is on the 4 or position of the heterocyclic moiety but especially on the 5 position.
The intermediate compounds of this invention have the following general formula:
and
wherein:
A may be -CHO, COOH,
u C-(lower alkyl) or H Cl, B may be CHO, CH (halogen), CH CN,
-COOH,
i C-(lower allryl) or -H Cl, and
R 1: and R are as previously defined.
The limitations imposed upon the final compounds apply equally to these intermediates. Also, the preferred compounds of these intermediates correspond to the above described preferred final products of this invention.
We have found that the final compounds described above have antiinfiammatory activity and are effective in the prevention and inhibition of granuloma tissue formation. In addition, some of them are of value in the treatment of arthritic and dermatological disorders and in like conditions which are responsive to treatment with antiinflammatory agents. For the above purposes they are normally administered orally in tablets or capsules, the optimum dosage depending on the particular compound being used and the type and severity of the condition being treated. Although the optimum quantities of these compounds to be used will depend on the compound employed and the particular type of disease condition treated, oral dose levels of preferred compounds in the range of 10-2000 mg. per day are useful in control of arthritic conditions, depending on the activity of the specific compound and the reactive sensitivity of the patient.
The compounds of this invention may be prepared from the following type starting material:
wherein Y, R and (R are as previously defined.
Many of the compounds indicated by the above formula are compounds known in the literature. In addition, a variety of these compounds may be prepared by a series of well-known reactions. For example, a starting iodo or bromo substituted furan (or thiophene) is subjected to a Grignard reaction (with furan, no Grignard reaction applicable where halide is on 3 position) to form the corresponding magnesium halide compound. The Grignard compound is then reacted with cyclohexauone to yield the corresponding cyclohexen-l-yl heterocyclic compound, which compound is hydrogenated to yield the desired starting material (the cyclohexyl heterocyclic compound). Alternatively, 4-benzyloxy cyclohexanone may be reacted instead of cyclohexanone itself, followed by any known hydrogenation procedure which will saturate the ring but not effect the benzyloxy group. In this latter case, the benzyloxy group is ultimately used, if desired, to form the hydroxy, lower alkoxy group or the 3-ene on the cyclohexyl moiety.
The process of this invention for the preparation of the intermediate and final compounds of Formulae I, II and III will be discussed separately. Furthermore, the first discussion will be limited to the preparation of the acid compounds (X=COOH) of each formula. The preparation of the corresponding ester, aldehydes, alcohols, acetals, ethers and non-toxic salts are discussed subsequently, grouping all the acid compounds of Formulae I, II and III together since the preparation of any of the acid derivatives is similar for any of the acid compounds.
IPREPARATION OF FORMULA I COMPOUNDS The appropriate 2-cyclohexyl heterocyclic starting material may be reacted with liquid HCN at low temperatures with subsequent addition of dry HCl. This reaction mixture is then poured onto ice and partially neutralized (to Congo red) to yield the corresponding S-cyclohexyl heterocyclic- 2-aldehyde compound. The aldehyde is then oxidized to the corresponding heterocyclic-2-carboxylic acid. Alternatively, the appropriate Z-cyclohexyl heterocyclic starting material is added to a mixture of sodium sand in an inert solvent maintained below 0 C. To this reaction mixture is then added a catalytic amount of a solution of amyl chloride in octane and the mixture is heated. The cooled reaction mixture is then added to solid carbon dioxide, water is added and the solution is acidified to yield the corresponding S-cyclohexyl heterocycIic-Z-carboxylic acid compound. The S-cyclohexyl heterocyclic-2-carboxylic acid prepared from either of the above procedures may be converted to the acetic acid side chain by the well-known Arndt-Eistet method. For example, the carboxyl group is converted to the acid halide, i.e., reaction with thionyl halide. The acid halide is treated with a solution of ethanol-diazomethane to form the corresponding diazoketone compound. This compound is reacted with silver oxide in water to produce the desired S-cyclohexyl heterocyclic-Z-acetic acid compound (using a lower alkanol in place of water above yields the corresponding ester).
When the heterocyclic moiety is thienyl, another procedure is preferred for the preparation of the acid compound. In this case the appropriate 2 or 3 cyclohexylthiophene starting material is reacted with aqueous formaldehyde, concentrated HCl and gaseous hydrogen chloride to form the corresponding -2-thiophene chloromethyl compound. This compound is then treated with a cyanide salt to yield the 2-acetonitrile, and subsequent hydrolysis yields the desired 4 or 5 cyclohexyl -2-thiopheneacetic acid compound.
When the desired Formula I compound is to be the 4 or 5 (cyclohex-3-enyl)-heterocyclic-2-acetic acid, the starting material is to contain the 4-benzyloxycyclohexyl moiety. After preparation of the acid, the benzyloxy group is reduced to the alcohol, which is then converted to the corresponding chloride, i.e., thionyl chloride, and subsequently reacted with basic reagents such as alkali hydroxides and alkoxides or a variety of amines to form the (cyclohex-3-enyl) group.
When it is desired to prepare the 5-cyclohexyl-3-thiopheneacetic acid compound of Formula I, a 2-cyclohexylthiophene or a lower alkyl substituted 2-cyclohexylthiophene compound is brominated so as to add bromine to any unsubstituted positions on the thiophene moiety. This compound is then reduced with aluminum amalgam to yield a 2-cyclohexyl-4-bromothiophene compound. Conversion of this compound to the Grignard reagent followed by reaction with CO and hydrolysis yields the 5-cyclohexyl-3-thiophenecarboxylic acid compound. This carboxyl group may then be converted to the acetic acid side chain as previously indicated. (Arndt-Eistet) The desired 5-cycloheXyl-3-furanacetic acid compound may be prepared by a series of known steps. A S-cyclohexyl-Z-furoic acid, prepared as previously indicated, is reacted with mercuric acetate to form an acetoxymercury furoate compound. This compound is then heated to form a 4-acetoxymercuri compound, and subsequently reacted with sodium-chloride to yield a 4-chloromercuri compound. This compound is then reacted as described on page to yield the corresponding ketone compoundand finally converted to the acetic acid side chain by any known reaction (i.e., Willgerodt Reaction).

Subsequent mixing of the reaction mixture with water, ice or ice-water (ice preferred) and neutralization of the aqueous layer with an inorganic base, such as an alkali carbonate, (especially Na COg) followed by heating at elevated temperatures (50100 C.) preferably at or near the reflux temperature of the system.
Step (2).Reaction with silver oxide in an inert solvent, such as water-dioxane, and with an alkali or alkali earth hydroxide, such as sodium, magnesium, barium, potassium, and the like (preferably alkali hydroxide), at any suitable temperature 10 C.--reflux) until the reaction is substantially complete.
Step (3).-Reaction according to the Arndt-Eistet method, employing any variable conditions well known in the art.
Step (4).-Reaction with an aqueous concentrated hydrochloric acid-formaldehyde solution at any suitable temperature (0ambient temperatures) preferably 0-10" C., until the reaction is substantially complete.
Step (5).Reaction with an alkali or alkali earth cyanide, such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, barium, and the like (preferably alkali cyanide), in an inert solvent, such as water-alkanol, water-dioxane (preferably water-ethanol), and the like, at elevated temperatures (50 C.--refiux) preferably at or near the reflux until the reaction is substantially complete.
Step (6).-Reaction with an aqueous alkali or alkali earth hydroxide, such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, barium, and the like (preferably an alkali hydroxide), at elevated temperatures (60 C.reflux) preferably at or near the reflux temperature of the system until the reaction is substantially complete and subsequently acidification with any suitable acid, such as a mineral acid (HCl, HBr) preferably hydrochloric acid.
In reaction step (1) the quantities used are not critical, only the ultimate yield is affected by varying the quantities. Also the solvent used is not critical and any inert solvent which is capable of .at least partially dissolving the reactants may be used. Even though the use of an inorganic base is not absolutely essential in this reaction, it is highly preferred. Any base may be used which will raise the pH of the solution to at least that of the upper limit of Congo red. The isolation of the aldehyde may be accomplished, when desired, by any well-known means, i.e., extraction with ether.
In reaction step (2) any water soluble solvent may be used which is inert to the reaction, such as the preferred Water-dioxane, dialkoxyethanes, and the like. The quantities of reactants are not critical in this reaction; therefore, any suitable concentrations may be used. The reaction may be run at 10 C. to reflux, but it is preferred to first initiate the reaction at ambient temperatures followed by heating at elevated temperatures (above 50 (3.). In order to go to the next step (3), it is highly preferred to first remove the water present in this reaction mixture since it is necessary to prepare an acid halide. However, it is possible to consume the water present by adding a great excess of the acid halide forming reactant.
Reaction step (3) is the well-known Arndt-Eistet re action. Any variations which are well-known in the literature and apply to this particular reactant may be used.
In reaction step (4) the quantity of formaldehyde used will effect only the yield obtained, and, therefore, is not critical. The amount of hydrochloric acid in the reaction mixture should be such that the formaldehyde solution is saturated or nearly saturated with hydrogen chloride.
Reaction steps (5) and (6) are well-known reactions, converting a halomethyl to a cyanomethyl and subsequent hydrolysis. Any of the well-known procedures in the art may be used, and the procedures given are simple illustrations of some of them.
FORMULA II COMPOUNDS The appropriate starting 2-cyclohexyl heterocyclic compound is reacted with mercuric chloride in the presence of an aqueous alkali or alkali earth acetate to produce a 2-cyclohexyl-5-chloromercuri hetero'cyclic compound. This compound may then be converted to the corresponding 5- lower alkanoyl compound by reaction with a lower alkanoic acid halide in an inert solvent. The 2-cyclohexyl-5- lower alkanoyl heterocyclic compound is then converted to the corresponding 2-cyanohydrin compound which is then treated with a mineral acid to form a Z-(hydroxyamide) compound. The hydroxyamide is subsequently converted to the hydroxy acid which is then reacted with a strong acid to form the desired Formula II compound (u-alkylidene acetic acid compound).
The 5-cyclohexyl-3-lower alkanoylfuran prepared as previously indicated in Col. 5 may be used to prepare the a-alkylidene-5-cyclohexyl-3-furanacetic acid by reacting the ketone as indicated in the series of steps above.

REACTIONS AND CONDITIONS Step (1).Reaction with mercuric chloride in an aqueous alkali or alkali earth acetate, such as sodium, potassium, calcium, barium, and the like (preferably an alkali acetate), at any suitable temperature (10 C.- 50 C.) preferably at ambient temperatures until the reaction is substantially complete.
Step (2).Reaction with a lower alkanoic acid halide (acetyl chloride, propionyl bromide, valeryl chloride, and the like, preferably acetyl chloride) in an inert solvent, such as acetone, dioxane, ether, tetrahydrofuran, and the like, preferably acetone at any suitable temperature (room temperature-reflux) preferably at elevated temperatures followed by addition to water.
Step (3).Reaction with a cyano compound, such as sodium cyanide, potassium cyanide, hydrogen cyanide, lower ketone cyanohydrin, and the like [preferably hydrogen cyanide with an amine, such as a primary, secondary, or tertiary aliphatic amine (ethylamine, propylamine, diethylamine, trimethylamine, and piperidine)] in a solvent, such as lower alkanols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, and the like), liquid hydrogen cyanide, ethers, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, water, mixtures of water and the above organic solvents, lower alkanoic acids (acetic, propionic, and the like), and mixtures of the acids and above solvents, preferably, however, using liquid hydrogen cyanide as the reactant as well as the solvent at any suitable temperature, preferably --10 to 25 C. but especially 0 to C., until the reaction is substantially complete.
'Step (4).Reaction with a mineral acid (hydrogen chloride, hydrogen bromide, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and the like, preferably fortified hydrochloric acid) in an inert solvent, such as lower alkanols (methanol, ethanol, propanol), ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, and the like, preferably employing the acid as the solvent also, between temperatures of 0 and 50 C., preferably at or below room temperature, until the reaction is substantially complete.
Step (5).Reaction with aqueous alkali or alkali earth hydroxides, such as sodium, potassium, barium, lithium, and strontium hydroxides, or nonaqueous alkali and alkali earth hydroxides with lower alkanols (methanol, propanol, and the like), ethylene glycol, and the like, aqueous ammonium hydroxide, organic amines (such as lower aliphatic amines, and the like), preferably aqueous sodium or potassium hydroxide, but especially concentrated aqueous sodium hydroxide (6-12 N) using the above aqueous hydroxides as the solvents or lower alkanols as the solvents, preferably using the aqueous hydroxide reactants as solvents also, at any suitable temperature (0 C. to reflux) preferably at or near reflux, until the reaction is substantially complete; the resulting reaction mixture is neutralized by any well-known means, to obtain the free acid.
Step (6).-Reaction in an acid medium using strong acids, such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, p-nitrobenzenesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, trichloroacetic acid, a mixture of acetic acid and sulfuric acid, and the like (preferably toluenesulfonic acid), in an inert solvent, such as aromatic compounds (benzene, toluene, xylene, and the like), dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, lower alkanoic acids (acetic acid, propionic acid, and the like) preferably acetic acid or tetrahydrofuran at elevated temperatures C. 0., preferably at or near the reflux temperature of the system) until the reaction is substantially complete.
In step (3) when it is desired to employ the cyanide salt, it is necessary to have the reaction mixture at a pH below 7. This is necessary in order to have the cyanide salt react as the acid. When the preferred procedure is used, namely, using hydrogen cyanide, the use of an amine, such as piperidine or tertiary amine, is highly preferred although not absolutely necessary.
In step (4) an acid condition is necessary to obtain this reaction, and those acids as previously indicated may be used. The reaction may be run above a temperature of 50 C. However, when higher temperatures are used, a mixture of the desired compound as well as the alkylenyl acid is obtained, and it is possible that the reaction may be run at temperatures wherein only the alkylenyl acid compound is obtained.
In step (5) the reaction product is neutralized to obtain the free acid. However, one can use the basic reaction product from this step for use in step (6). In such a case the acid used in step (6) would neutralize the basic solution.
COMPOUNDS OF FORMULA III The m-alkylidene compounds of Formula H may be reacted with hydrogen to form the desired a-lower alkyl Formula III compounds. Alternatively, the Formula I acid compounds may be converted to the corresponding ester, reacted with a lower alkyl oxalate to form an u-keto ester which in turn is reacted with a lower alkyl halide to replace the tat-hydrogen with a lower alkyl group. This compound may then be reacted with an alkali alkoxide followed by neutralization with a dilute mineral acid to form the oz-lOWCl' alkyl acid compound of Formula HI. Further, the hydroxy acid obtained from step (5) Col. 7, may be reacted with phosphorous and iodine to give the Formula III compound directly.
PREPARATION OF COMPOUNDS OF FORMULA HI (lower alkylidene) l \Y /(|J1I-CO0H (lower alky Equivalents.-As previously described.
9 REACTIONS AND CONDITIONS Step (l).Reduction over a catalyst, such as palladium, platinum or Raney nickel, and the like, preferably l0% platinum oxide under moderate hydrogen pressure (5-60 pounds, preferably 40 pounds) in an inert solvent, such as lower alkanols (methanol, ethanol, butanol, and the like), aromatic compounds (benzene, toluene, xylene, and the like), tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, acetic acid, and the like, at any suitable temperature (0 C. to reflux), preferably at ambient temperatures in ethanol until the reaction is substantially complete.
The compounds of Formulae I, II and III of this invention wherein X is other than COOH, may be prepared from the corresponding acid compounds.
The process for the preparation of the esters may be carried out by reaction of the corresponding acid with a strong acid, such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, toluenesulfonic acid, p-nitrotoluenesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, and the like (preferably 13% concentrated sulfuric acid), and with the appropriate alcohol. The alcohol may be used as a solvent also or an inert solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, ether, or dioxane, may be used. The reaction may be carried out at any suitable temperature; however, it is preferably carried out at or near the reflux temperature of the system. Esterifications are wellknown reactions in the art, and although a particular esterification reaction is indicated here, the acid may be esterified by any known means. When the alcohol is not suitable for use as a solvent, inert solvents are used along with the alcohol. When using phenol as the alcohol for the esterification step, it is highly preferred to azetrope the water formed so as to allow ester formation. Another highly suitable procedure for this esterification step is the reaction of the acid with at least one mole of a diimide (such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide) and the appropriate alcohol in an inert solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran.
The process for the preparation of the amide compounds of this invention may be carried out by reacting the corresponding acid with thionyl chloride, thionyl bromide, phosphorus oxychloride, phosphorus oxybromide, phosphorus pentachloride, or phosphorus pentabromide in an inert solvent-such as ether, benzene, toluene, xylene, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, and the like followed by reaction with an excess of the desired amine at any suitable temperature (0 C. to room temperature preferred) or reaction with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and an excess of the amine at any suitable temperature until the reaction is substantially complete. When primary amides are desired, ammonia may be employed; when secondary amides are required, primary aliphatic or aromatic amines are employedsuch as propylamine, benzylamine, fl-phenethylamine, aniline, and the like. To obtain cyclic amides, N-unsubstituted cyclic amines-such as pyrrolidine, piperidine, morpholine, and the likeare employed. It is generally preferred to run this reaction with the amine acting as the solvent also; however, when this cannot be conveniently done, an inert solvent such as indicated above may be used. In addition, it is preferred to remove the excess reagent and acidic byproduct formed in this reaction prior to the addition of the amine. However, the acid may be neutralized by using an excess of the amine. An alternative procedure is to react the cyclohexyl heterocyclic acetic acid compound with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and the desired amine. The three components may be mixed at any suitable temperature (-1() C. to 50 C.), but are preferably mixed at ambient temperatures for several hours.
The process for the preparation of the aldehyde compounds of this invention may be carried out by reacting the corresponding cyclohexyl heterocyclic acetic acid compounds with a compound such as thionyl chloride, thionyl bromide, phosphorus pentachloride, phosphorus pentabromide, phosphorus oxychloride, phosphorus oxybromide, and the like, but preferably thionyl chloride 1n an inert solvent to form the acid halide and subsequent reduction of the acid halide to the aldehyde. The inert solvents used may be benzene, toluene, xylene, ethers (diethyl ether, dioxane), tetrahydrofuran, or the like, preferably benzene or toluene. Any suitable temperature may be employed (room temperature to reflux); however, it is preferred to use temperatures at or near the reflux temperature of the system until the formation of the acid halide is substantially complete. The acid halide is then reacted with a Rosenmund catalyst such as 5% Pd 0n BaSO with quinoline, or with a tritertiarybutoxy alkali or alkali earth aluminum hydride, such as potassium, sodium or lithium aluminum hydride and the like. The reduction is preferably carried out with a tritertiarybutoxy alkali or alkali earth aluminum hydride, particularly with tritertiarybutoxy lithium aluminum hydride in tetrahydrofuran or ether. However, the inert solvent may also be benzene, toluene, xylene, ethers (diethyl ether, dioxane), and the like. The reaction may be carried out at any suitable temperature (-80 C. to room temperature), but preferably to 15 C. until the reaction is substantially complete.
It is preferred to remove the inorganic acid formed after the acid halide preparation; otherwise, the inorganic acid would preferentially consume the subsequent addition of the hydride. However, if it is desired, the inorganic acid may remain if an excess of the hydride is used to react with the inorganic acid as well as with the acid halide. When the butoxide reagent is used, it is preferred to use temperatures below 0 C. If temperatures above 0 C. are used, the reduction will lead to the corresponding alcohol instead of the aldehyde. As indicated, al-
though higher temperatures may be used, it is not economically feasible, for a reaction temperature will be reached wherein the corresponding alcohol will be almost exclusively produced. However, if the alcohol is desired, this is still another way of going directly from the acid to the alcohol.
The process for the preparation of the acetal compounds of this invention may be carried out by reacting the previously prepared aldehyde compound with a lower alkanol in the presence of a strong acid. Examples of strong acids contemplated for this reaction are toluenesulfonic acid, p-nitrobenzenesulfonic acid, and mineral acids (hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and borontrifluoride). It is preferred to use a catalytic amount of toluenesulfonic acid or concentrated hydrochloric acid in a lower alkanol (methanol, ethanol, butanol, and the like) at any suitable temperature. However, the solvents used may be aromatic compounds or combinations of the alcohol and ethers as well as the alcohol itself. The reaction temperature is not critical, and, therefore, temperatures from 0 C. to reflux may easily be used, although ambient temperatures are preferred. The quantity of acid is not critical; all that is required is that the acid be of sufficient strength-to catalyze the reaction. Alternatively, the reaction may be carried out by employing the aldehyde and the appropriate lower alkyl orthoformate. When it is desired to isolate the acetal, and water is to be used in the isolation, the reaction mixture must be new tralized with a base such as sodium carbonate so as to preve'nt the hydrolysis of the acetal back to the aldehyde.
The alcohols of this invention may be obtained by reaction of the corresponding acid compound with an alkali or. alkali earth aluminum hydride. Almost any solvent may be used as long as it is inert to the hydride and the reactants have some degree of solubility in it. Preferred inert solvents are tetrahydrofuran and diethyl ether. The temperature of this reaction is not critical; therefore, under these conditions, temperatures from 15 C. to reflux are well Within the contemplation of this invention. The complex metal hydridessuch as lithium aluminum hydride, and the like-used may be less than the theoretical amount; however, it is preferred to use 200- 400% excess of the preferred lithium aluminum hydried. After the reaction, the excess hydride is decomposed by addition of ethyl acetate or an active hydrogen reactant, such as alcohols, water, or dilute aqueous mineral acids. The alcohol compound obtained from this reaction is in the form of its salt, and therefore an aqueous acid is used to convert the alcohol salt to the free alcohol. Such acids may be hydrochloric, ammonium chloride, sulfuric, and the like. This portion of the reaction is preferably carried out at C. to ambient temperatures by first adding water followed by dilute sulfuric acid. The ester may also be reduced catalytically using such catalyst as reuthenium.
The ether compounds of this invention are prepared from the corresponding alcohols. The alcohol is reacted with a strongly basic condensing agent, such as sodium hydride, potassium hydroxide, potassium tertiary butoxide, or sodamide, and a lower alkyl halide (methyl iodide, allyl, chloride, fi-phenethyl bromide, or ethyl bromide and the like), preferably sodium hydride and 50% excess of methyl iodide. Although dimethylformamide is generally used as the solvent, any non-active hydrogen solvent may be used, such as aromatic solvents (benzene, toluene), ethers (diethyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran), and the like. The reaction is generally carried out at ambient temperatures; however, temperatures from 0-50 C. may be conveniently used also. The quantity of reagents used will affect the yield of the ether; therefore, it is generally preferred to use an excess of the hydride and halide. Additionally, the excess hydride is used to consume any active hydrogen materials which may be present in the starting alcohol compound.
The non-toxic salts of the acid compounds of this invention may be conveniently prepared by procedures well known in the art. For example, the cyclohexyl heterocyclic acetic acid compound may be reacted with an inorganic base in an inert solvent and the solution evaporated to yield the desired salt.
